The Message Series: Extreme Faith Workout

4.18.2010 - This morning, we begin a new message series entitled: Extreme Faith Workout, a study in the book of James. And let me be right up front with my intentions: I am going to try and communicate this book in such a way so that its intentions are clear: God wants to challenge us, to stretch our faith, and to put it into action. This is not a book of the Bible for those of us who want to be coddled or feel comfortable. This is a book study for those of us who are willing to be humbled, to be challenged; and are ready to grow. I am going to challenge myself and challenge you, to take your next steps of faith during this series; and I want to ask you to be willing to do so. At the end of this message, I will give you instructions on how to follow through with accepting these challenges if you so choose. But, first, let’s jump into the book of James.
